Bug 285409 – kde-misc/ksensors segfaults on startup

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Billy DeVincentis 2009-09-18 02:57:00 UTC]

I recompiled ksensors about 2-3 weeks ago and it has run fine since then. Now I recompiled it again and it segfaults on startup. If anyone is using it successfuly, please make a backup package and then re-emerge it and see if you can confirm. This is identical on 2 ~amd machines.

Reproducible: Always

[Comment 1 Billy DeVincentis 2009-09-18 19:43:49 UTC]

I was able to repair this by re-emerging all immediate dependencies
kdelibs
qt3
libtool
make
pkgconfig
perl
libXt

and then after recompiling ksensors, it started up fine. One note, qt3 failed to emerge until I eselected the current postgresql installation so this may have had something to do with it.

Leaving this open for anyone who comes across this for now.

[Comment 3 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2009-11-02 21:26:02 UTC]

The latest version is from 2004 and it's for KDE3-only. This has been masked for removal.
